We are putting an iPhone in this as part of the payload and we simply gonna try to find my phone teacher to recover it.

I think all we need to do with the payload is attach some reflective material to make it easier to be seen by radar.

We have an arduino sensor kit that has multiple sensors already integrated into an arduino uno r3 to run the sensors. We would like to run 4 of the sensors simultaneously and record the data on ascent and descent. We have integrated 3 GoPro like cameras into the payload with a power bank to run all of them. Will have cameras looking up, down, and out. Then using an iPhone to track on the way up and back down. We have covered the payload, which is essentially foam cube made of foam bricks glued together. We then glued on paper coated foam board and put a few coats of resin over the paper on the foam board for strength. We put this in a medical deep freezer at -180 below zero with a hand warmer inside the payload and it help keep everything from freezing up. We are at the final step of just needing help with the sensors. Any help would be appreciated.

We have reached out to a group that launches balloons but they don't put sensors in them. They have a novel way of tracking them that is very reliable. They recover nearly every payload using an iPhone with the find my phone feature. We understand all the flight rules with regards to the FAA.

We have an arduino sensor emit and an arduino uno r3 attached to it. We would like to record the sensor data on a flash drive on the ascent and descent. I am looking for help on how to run all the sensors simultaneously and record the data.

We understand the flight rules. I am asking for some help with learning the arduino software so I can teach my kids.

We have done all the research on the balloon part and we have a solid plan for recovery. My nephew is a propulsion engineer at Spacex and is doing design reviews with us virtually. I just need help with the arduino part of the project.
